My take on Dr. Girlfriend is that she is a very minor freak of nature: a woman of astonishing beauty, grace, and intelligence, but cursed with the voice of a Longshoreman. No more complicated explanation is required, or desired for that matter. I was speaking figuratively, I assure you.

Though I think they've established via flashbacks (particularly the backstory on Master Billy Quizboy and the beginning of the Monarch/Dr. Girlfriend relationship) that Dr. Girlfriend is, in fact, a woman, albeit one with a really weird voice Thrillho,

Good question. Though I think they’ve established via flashbacks (particularly the backstory on Master Billy Quizboy and the beginning of the Monarch/Dr. Girlfriend relationship) that Dr. Girlfriend is, in fact, a woman, albeit one with a really weird voice

(Which is like picking my least favorite Fourth World book.) Venture Aid 2006 had practically the whole cast at the time, and they even managed to make "Hard Candy Christmas" super awesome.

A recommendation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aixcna743L0 I love this one by Blues Traveler. Pretty much sums up my usual Christmas attitudes (starting off Grinchy, eventually won over) and bonus points for the original song. Ah, bravo sir. The ultimate non-Christmassy Christmas song.

Fairytale of New York has been declared the last of the great Christmas songs, that is, there really haven't been any great Christmas songs made since then. And I have to concur.

I'm belaboring the obvious by saying you're a man with great taste Mr. Sims. Happy Holidays to you and yours. May all your kicks to the face be of the comic variety. P.S. I noticed you left Nova off your shopping list last week. Are you dropping the title? Great song! Great band! I’m belaboring the obvious by saying you’re a man with great taste Mr. Sims.
